One thing that I forgot to mention within the video is that the female mannequin's wedding dress will be made out of newspaper, with layerings of tracing paper on top for an added definition and sheer look to the design.
So this is my film pitch!
Please bear in mind that I haven't spoken about my whole idea in this film, and so I am considering elements such as mise-en-scene, actors, locations etc.
I think stop motion is a good idea although it is lengthly it could be worth it. Would it all be in stop motion or would you concider having part of it real life filming?
ReplyDeleteI really like this idea, I think it would be really cute for the puppet to fall in love with the manniquin, this still has a fairytale-esque feel to it and the idea of him living in your shed is really good. How would your brother fit into the film? Would he be friends with the puppet?
ReplyDeleteI think your idea is a really good one. I think especially for a young audience, its such a nice juvenile idea, which is refreshing because I think a lot of other people get bogged down in subtext and seriousness. I think you should really use the idea of stop motion as its creative and original.
ReplyDeleteSounds you have the building blocks of a really fun and creative idea! I'd be very interested to watch this short, should you choose to make it. Have you thought much about sound in your film?
ReplyDeleteGood idea I think it's good to go with your initial instincts of what inspires you when you're having to create something and I really like the idea of puppets, I think it would work really nicely to do it in motion picture rather than stop motion as it would be different to what other people are doing and suits the whole idea of using puppets.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea, think it shall work really well. I personally think that maybe give a try out of the stop motion, because if it works for you I think that will look really effective, but I also think it is good that you have considered how time consuming it can be therefore have thought of an idea where you can also film it through 'real' action. Have you thought about whether you will use digentic or non-digentic sound, whether you will include much dialogue ect? x
ReplyDeleteI think you have a very creative idea which could work very well - the puppets would be very entertaining! If you were thinking of stop motion that would also be very effective - but you would have to already start planning to make sure you manage your time efficiently; if you do it will work greatly! Good luck :-)
